| acer-box__ | I’ve found a good compilation of a lot of articles compiled at this website. Mostly about the anti-trust court cases and other things but some showing his personality as well | Apr 13 04:59 |

| schestowitz | Yes, but performance wise it'll be better. | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | Minor points, which #techrights IRC logs from yesterday help highlight (will explain what was done) | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 1. tuxmachines DB next to go to the container, this was we only need to update one instance of mariadb | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 2. unattended, autiomated updated turned on | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 3. HV updated after 501 (!!) days of uptime | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 4. VMs will be turned to containers next -- likely the end of the VM crashes we've long experienced | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 5. DB container has 100GB in it. We have at least 400GB for the rest. It's RAIDed | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 6. cron jobs mostly turned off | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | 7. we can soon delete mysql files on the TR VM... and on /home/tmp_mariadb I already emptied that file to avoid unexpected runover | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | More important: | Apr 13 05:44 |
| schestowitz | Today's links, the "Combined" files, had an encoding issue. All smart quotes and similar "smart" symbols got all garbled; this is the same thing that occasionally happened months ago. This one file wasn't too huge (Sunday) so I manually edited out the bad chars... no "research and replace"... no big deal as long as it's not a new bug and something that can creep in every day. | Apr 13 05:45 |
| schestowitz | IIRC, this sometimes happens not due to software bugs but we were never too sure what the culprit was. | Apr 13 05:45 |
| schestowitz | I'll try to get back to writing now. Didn't eat or sleep well yesterday. | Apr 13 05:45 |

| schestowitz | The writing sometimes goes hand in hand with coding, for example if you want to do some number crunching to research some open data, but coding is rarely essential. Using the text editor well can help too. There are many features and scripts we write to help with that. | Apr 13 18:05 |

| schestowitz | That would depend on the theme you wish to write about. Our articles about the EPO tend to focus on justice and injustice. GNU/Linux is a lot to do with competition aspects and sharing/philosophy. | Apr 13 18:06 |
| schestowitz | Would you prefer to focus on patent/law domains or software. | Apr 13 18:06 |
| schestowitz | Also, would you be interesting in help curation of Daily Links? A lot of effort goes into researching while curating. | Apr 13 18:06 |

| schestowitz | Let's establish which aspects best fit your interests. The motivations and drive will be there if you follow your own passion rather than somebody else's. It's more rewarding. | Apr 13 18:06 |
| schestowitz | If you wish to cover EPO issues, we can share with you some material for whistleblowers to analyse. But a high degree of trust is needed for it; not even my close associate sees everything, as sources are very prickly about who sees what. They risk their while career for it. | Apr 13 18:06 |
